Last month, when AllHipHop.com checked in with Alabama native Jackie Chain, he spoke on his background, influences, and how his most recent project, After Hours, which he released with Fool’s Gold DJ and producer Nick Catchdubs, had been received from listeners and fans alike.

When we spotted Jackie on the streets of SXSW after checking out a show headlined by Smoke DZA and A$AP Rocky, we wasted no time in talking about life and the music he’s been creating post-After Hours.

In addiditon to the revelation that he’ll soon be going under the moniker Bruce Lean, Jackie revealed that his next mixtape, The Bruce Lean Chronicles, is nearly complete and will be hitting the Internet and streets sooner rather than later. He also updated us on the status of his Universal Republic debut, Aint Slept In Weeks, and spoke on his plans while he was down in Austin.
